150? thats one hell of a budget.
id take that case, and borrow a dremel from someone.
google a nice stencil you'd think would look nice and slap it on the case and dremel her out.
go to homedepot and get a nice 1/8" thick plexiglass 10x8 and hot glue that baby in.
order LEDs by sets of 5 so its 2.xx a set and get some resistors from llamma. wire them up and hold them in place with hotglue, order 0603leds and change ur your ROL and run to paint section in the depot and get some good quality cans of spray paint. 2xcolor Krylons, and 1 can on clear coat.


$50 max, and invest that $100 remaining into a used psp to be the next victim lol

I forgot the name of the bit I have on mine, it's just round and thin.

What do you think would look better? Go with whatever you think will look better. Get creative and go with it.

I don't see how $150 is really enough in my eyes. I do mods all day long and for a nice complete mod it's at least $150 but then again I like to add 40+ leds in my mods plus pulse vu, etc.
